Nice looking bike Steven -
If the fender clearance becomes more of an issue you might try a
different manufacturer. Some of the Honjo or Berthod models have an
rounder cross section thereby giving those Hetres a little more room
to breathe.
Enjoy the ride !!

Thanks!
There really is room to move the front fender up closer to the fork

Not much fender clearance on the front wheel. Yikes!
Maybe you could file a bit off the bottom of the fork crown?
Other than that, looks like a nice bike. Congrats!

like the way they look and work, and the shape of the newer Cane Creek
V-lever's brake hood is comfortable for me. I set them up in 10
minutes and they're squeal free, powerful and I have no trouble with
modulation. YMMV as they
Heh, there's room to raise the fender but I haven't gotten around to
it. It doesn't rub unless the tire picks up some mud but, yeah--the
front of the fender in particular is closer to the tire than it needs
to be...
